title: [Urothelial tumor in dialysis patients; report of four cases].

Durations of dialysis at the time of diagnosis were 13 to 24 months. Chief complaints of these four cases were gross hematuria. One case with bladder tumor underwent emergency operation because of repeated bladder tamponade. Partial cystectomy was performed on this case. Other two cases with bladder tumor were treated with endoscopic method. Simple nephrectomy was done in the case with renal pelvic tumor. Post operative course in all four cases were uneventful without major complications.
